    Brand new Nintendo Wii Console in Japanese Language Software Interface and user's guide (for die hard fans!)


    Just be careful about this. I think I read somewhere on here you can't change the Japanese ones into English language. They maynot be PAL compatible either. I guess they will be NTSC.

    Anyone here know if these would work in the UK

    Open this http://www.wii-consoles.co.uk/

    Click on RealTime. It checks all the major suppliers every 60 seconds and a pop up appears when one has consoles in stock.

    Be aware - it only checks every 60 seconds. Meaning stock can disappear before you are alerted.

    Also, if you happen to miss the alert for a minute or so. You will miss the stock.

    But that's all part of the fun!!:confused:

    Welcome to the hunt!

    Thanks for that lead. My sister is out shopping at the moment in Washington DC - if she doesn't get them then I will certainly try dealexttreme.

    :dance:

    Dealextreme operate out of Hong Kong and mainly ship to the US hence they deal in $ (but take payment via Paypal)
    Shipping time is supposed to be 7-10 days after dispatch - mine were dispatched 6 days after ordering

    Also check your junk mail folder. My alerts were going into there for the first few days for me:mad:

    These haven't been very reliable lately, you need to keep refreshing pages yourself, keep an eye on this thread as well because this is more reliable than the stock checkers
